Re: [Design-team] Proposal for wallpaper to Constantine

[Samuele Storari <sstorari@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys

This is another idea I'm workin' on.

4 Horses of 4 F Theme

I think about horses 'cause in roman time they were so diffused and not only a transport, but as a sign of power for the nobilities.

Like a lot of leader statues riding an horse in many squares.

These are only sketches to show my idea and have some feedback, take a look

Ciao
